  • IPRED Versus the Sharing of Culture: Moving Away from Enforcement
    March 2011 IPRED Versus The Sharing of Culture: Moving Away From Enforcement Response to the European Commission's consultation on the “Intellectual Property Rights” Enforcement Directive (IPRED). La Quadrature du Net | 1 Executive summary: EU's Internet policy at crossroads More than 10 years after adopting a framework for the development of information society services and the promotion of freedom of expression online, the European Union faces a crucial choice: It can either pursue the promotion of democratic goals and innovation in the digital environment, or remain blind to social and technical realities by enforcing a copyright regime that is at its very core unadapted to the Internet. Sadly, the European Commission's documents regarding the revision of the “Intellectual Property Rights” Enforcement Directive (IPRED) suggests that forces of the status quo could prevail. In the age of the Internet, where any citizen can have access to a global communications infrastructure to access and disseminate culture and knowledge, our legal system must give up on the idea that each instance of transmission of artistic works must be submitted to prior authorization, especially in cases of non-profit transmission. The debate needs to move away from enforcement and focus on financing schemes and business-models that can accommodate widespread social practices, such as non- commercial file-sharing of cultural works, while providing appropriate resources for creative activities. However, the Internal Market Directorate General of the EU Commission, which is supervising the revision of IPRED, appears too much in line with the copyright industry to break away from outdated policies. Even though it has undertaken laudable efforts to create a more integrated single digital market, its determination to repress non-commercial sharing of cultural goods over the Internet is endangering the technical and legal architecture on which are based the democratic and economic potential of the Internet.

  • For the Encouragement of Learning
    For the Encouragement of Learning Copyright 1710-2010 Anniversary Forum London, 9 April 2010 “For the Encouragement of Learning” The world’s first copyright law was passed by the English Parliament on 10 April 1710 as ‘An Act for the Encouragement of Learning’. The Queen Anne Statute, as it is known, marked the beginning of modern copyright law. Professor Gillian Davies, author of ‘Copyright and the Public Interest’, describes it as ‘the foundation upon which the modern concept of copyright in the Western world was built’, quoting Halsbury’s ‘Laws of England’, edited by Lord Hailsham, as saying, ‘In changing the conceptual nature of copyright, it became the most important single event in copyright history’ and Barbara Ringer, US Registrar of Copyrights, as saying, ‘It is the mother of us all, and a very possessive mother at that.’ The 300th anniversary provides a unique opportunity to review copyright’s purposes and principles. If today we were starting from scratch, but with the same aim of encouraging learning‚ what kind of copyright would we want? To answer this question, the British Council is organising a series of meetings in London, Shanghai and elsewhere. Our starting point is the question, What is the purpose of copyright? And, once that is agreed, even tentatively, how could we achieve it? Is the list of ‘qualifying works’ the right one? Should copyright arise automatically or should rights be registered? Is ‘copyright’ the appropriate name? How do we balance access and ownership? What are the optimal lengths of copyright terms? What is the role of moral rights, and of personal data and privacy? What do we mean by ‘fair’ in the phrases ‘fair dealing’ and ‘fair use’ and how do we uphold this fairness in practice? Is fairness in a physical world different from fairness in the digital space? How do we define unlawful copying and how do we promote a fair regime of sanctions and penalties? The possibilities of creating and copying have expanded dramatically in recent years.

  • Battling Bankers: Insights on Financial Power from the Grassroots
    STATE OF POWER 2019 Battling Bankers Insights on financial power from the grassroots Interview with Simona Levi, Alvin Mosioma and Joel Benjamin Worldwide, countless activists are engaged in challenging unjust financial power on a daily basis. Few are financial experts or economists but citizens who through their struggles have gained an understanding of financial power that few academics can rival. TNI had the privilege of talking to three warriors against the international banking cartel – a theatre director in Spain, a tax justice leader in Kenya and a local government campaigner in the UK – to hear about their struggles and the insights they have picked up that have relevance to all of us. Simona Levi, a theatre director and performance artist, is based in Barcelona. With her small group Xnet, she succeeded in getting former IMF chief and Bankia executive Rato and 17 others sentenced to prison in 2018 for their financial crimes and role in Spain’s economic crisis. Alvin Mosioma is based in Nairobi and with others stopped a tax avoidance treaty between Kenya and Mauritius. He helped organise the first World Social Forum in Kenya and is the founding Executive Director of Tax Justice Network-Africa. Joel Benjamin is based in London. His work with Debt Resistance UK has exposed a slew of toxic loans sold under false pretences to local authorities and has prompted major lawsuits, parliamentary enquiries and extensive media coverage. State of Power 2019: Finance 16 What finance-related campaigns are you involved in right now? Alvin: Our work revolves around how to ensure finance works for people.

  • Felix Stalder Digital Solidarity
    Digital Solidarity Digital Digital Solidarity Felix Stalder Felix Stalder’s extended essay, Digital Solidarity, responds to / Digital the wave of new forms of networked organisation emerging from and colliding with the global economic crisis of 2008. Felix Stalder Across the globe, voluntary association, participatory decision- Solidarity making and the sharing of resources, all widely adopted Felix Stalder online, are being translated into new forms of social space. This movement operates in the breach between accelerating technical innovation, on the one hand, and the crises of institutions which organise, or increasingly restrain society on the other. Through an inventory of social forms – commons, assemblies, swarms and weak networks – the essay outlines how far we have already left McLuhan’s ‘Gutenberg Galaxy’ behind. In his cautiously optimistic account, Stalder reminds us that the struggles over where we will arrive are only just beginning. Part of the PML Books series.

  • Free Culture Forum with Special Guest Lawrence Lessig
    Media Advisory Free Culture Forum With special guest Lawrence Lessig For Immediate Release Date: March 23rd, 2006 Time: 11:30 am - 2:30pm Location: 450 Dodge Hall, Northeastern University For: Students, faculty, staff and the public Cost: Free Join us for a lively discussion on issues related to free culture including artistic freedom, the public domain, copyright, control of the media, open access, open source, free software, academic journals, institutional repositories, and consumer rights. Learn about organizations and projects such as Creative Commons and the Directory of Open Access Journals that support open dialogue and public access to creative works—from scientific, scholarly journals to websites, from photography to music, from literature to courseware. What is the free culture movement? A healthy, vibrant culture must continually be improved and refashioned by those who live in it. This requires a thriving public domain and cultural commons that anyone can build upon or reshape. To achieve this ideal, free culture seeks to promote open intellectual property policy and channel the power of technology toward appreciation, creation, and distribution of participatory culture. According to Lawrence Lessig, free culture is concerned with big media protecting the interests of big media over creators. Free culture supports and protects creators and innovators and seeks the transformation of culture through the free exchange of ideas. The Participants A panel of free culture advocates and experts and you!

But what of the man? I know his name was Guy Fawkes and I know, in 1605, he aHempted to blow up the Houses of Parliament. But who was he really? What was he like? We are told to remember the idea, not the man, because a man can fail. He can be caught, he can be killed and forgoHen, but 400 years later, an idea can sMll change the world.” “...fairness, jusMce, and freedom are more than words, they are perspecves.” (From the movie V for Vende0a 2005) I would like to express my gratude to a few persons who have given me the support and inspiraon for wri4ng this thesis and have made a valuable contribu4on.
